Verse 1
It's a tug of war
What with one thing and another
It's a tug of war
We expected more
But with one thing and another
We were trying to outdo each other
In a tug of war
Bridge
ln another world
ln another world
We could stand on top of the mountain
With our flag unfurled
In a time to come
ln a time to come
We will be dancing to the beat played
On a different drum
Verse 2
It's a tug of war
Though I know I mustn't grumble
It s a tug of war
But I can't let go
If I do you'll take a tumble
And the whole thing is going to crumble
It's a tug of war
(Pushing pushing, pulling pulIing, pushing and pulling)
Middle 8
ln years to come they may discover
What the air we breathe and the life we lead are all about
But it won't be soon enough
Soon enough for me
No, it won't be soon enough
Soon enough for me

We will be dancing to the beat
Played on a different drum
We will be dancing to the beat
Played on a different drum
Verse 3
It's a tug of war
What with one thing and another
lt's a tug of war
We expected more
But with one thing and another
We were tryin' to outscore each other
It's a tug of war
(Pushing pushing, pulling pulIing, pushing and pulling)
